I am a lazy member of this forum so most of you may not know me but here's a post trying to reason out the whole maanvi vs jeevika thing, whether jeevika doesnt care for maanvi's love or whether maanvi is too immature to realize that her love becomes interference in jeevika's new life.
Firstly, what is the love of behnas based on?
Whatever we saw of the behnas in rishikesh made me realize that manvi and jeevika's love is based on jeevika acting as an adult bias towards manvi. jeevika understands maanvi is a child. she understands maanvi likes doing things her way. but she acted as the neutral one who would explain beeji maanvi's pov and apologize on her behalf and explain to maanvi what she's doing is wrong even if she does it desiring a positive outcome. jeevika has been motherly to maanvi, scolds her but tries to understand her rationale and does whatever to keep maanvi out of trouble. thats what maanvi loves about her. Thats probably been the way since they were kids.
Jeevika is still the same, and so is maanvi, but circumstances have changed since the people around them have changed. Hence, maanvi's mistakes are now magnified, even though they want to meet a positive end and jeevika's efforts to take maanvi's side are hindered by the other duties she is supposed to perform as a wife, bahu and most importantly, as a member of the vadhera household.
Maanvi and Swamini
All families have this weird aunty who has a problem wiith every thing that doesnt go her way. the world has many intolerant aunties, who cant imagine the world not obeying their orders. Swamini is one of them. Guess what, Beeji wouldve been the same too. I think beeji would have reacted similarly towards maanvi's antics if she wasnt related to maanvi. she wouldnt take maanvi's flamboyance with a pinch of salt if maanvi wasnt her grand daugher. Some aunties are just that type. Now, what we can't do is expect such aunties to put up with maanvi's personality, Maanvi's character oubviously will not understand that. Thats the way she functions. Her mantra is also to make the world function her way. The problem is that, Jeevika can no longer be the middle man. Just like, maanvi's fans think she has the right to be who she is, and follow her mantra of spreading her ideas, Jeevika too has to be respected in accordance with the limitations she has upon her now. Convincing Beeji was a different thing, convincing Swamini Bua all the time is a different thing. Standing up for Maanvi isnt as easy anymore. She is answerable to other people now who have only recently entered her life. Now is the time to secure relations with them so the foundation of her married life has less trouble (obvs that wont happen, since drama in the sasuraal in inevitable in shows) but like maanvi, while trying to ease up the surrounding in the vadhera house makes Jeevika's life complicated unintentionally and Jeevika bounded by the vadhera's expectations cannot act like the way she did before her shaadi. The vadheras are jeevika's family too, and they certainly arent torturing beasts so there is no reason to oppose them vehemently on her part since she is ready to make sacrifices.
Maanvi is being herself, like she always does, because that's maanvi's way, and Jeevika is being herself. She appears different because now she keeps in mind the probable reponse of other people too. She is the rishikesh waali jeevika, with layers unravelling as she meets newer challenges. The fact is, Jeevika loves her marital life. A simple girl who followed everyone's commands and made all the sacrifices has found a guy that loves her, not only because of the expectations she has the ability to live up to but because of her individuality as well ( being highlighted in the honeymoon track which is giving greater depth to their romance. Every girl would kill for that. So it is NOT selfish on jaavika's part when she attemmpts to balance stuff between Maanvi and the Vadheras. Vadheras are in the package of that life viren can give Jeevika. Complications with them will complicate her marital life and there is no reason why she should not make concious decisions to eliminate these complications. Maanvi is being childish. But thats not her fault. She's been the baby of the family and none of her elders have successfully explained to her why she should not be herself with certain types of people. Plus, she does not feel crazy guilty when does stuff like fight with virat, or enter her sister's party, or write a letter to swamini, or interfere in Inder's life. Her will to do good overpowers reasoning with keeping possible reactions in mind. She believes in the power of goodness staunchly. Her means maybe haywire but they were manageable in rishikesh and she doesnt like adapting.
Maanvi is against Jeevika adapting to swaamini and dada ji's rule. She is against adapting herself. Jeevika doesnt seem to have a problem with adapting and there are a lot of advantages for her in the deal, which any girl would avail.
The battle is kinda between fighting for individuality (Maanvi) and being ready to sacrfice (Jeevika). None of these are wrong I believe. Both the behnas are discovering themselves now. They dont love each other any less but they love other stuff too, like all other human beings. They believed ek hazaron mein meri behna hain, and they have the right to believe ek hazaron mein aur bhi cheezen hain. 😳
Please write back, longgg comments, so I'm not demotivated and go back to being a lazy member. 😛 😆
